Night Moves by Andrea Smith

There's anew Alpha in town… and he's a Brit!

Darcy NicoleSheridan, is 22 years-old, beautiful, single, spirited, sexy and- spoiled.She knows that about herself. Raised by wealthy (and doting) parents as an onlychild, Darcy pretty much coasts through life until her heart was inexplicablybroken by her boyfriend, Darin.

To ease the pain, Darcy flies to Belize over the holidays fullyintending to wallow in self-pity and distance herself from her ex. Her pityparty is short-lived however, after observing a very handsome, very intriguingman on the beach. Darcy becomes the focus of the smokin' hot, wealthy andsomewhat mysterious 'E.J.'

Soon she finds herself entangled with an alpha like no other…Her world is rocked by a series of eventsthat will forever change the course of her life, showing her what love is allabout; and forcing her to come to terms with hidden sexual pleasures only oneman could fulfill…

“He omittedthe fact that I looked a lot like the last woman he may actually have trulycared for. I mean, yeah, he told me that I wasn’t anything like Lacee... butwhat about Bianca friggin’ Templeton? And then he just walks out of my life,expecting me to never have figured it out and call him out on that kind ofbullshit? Yeah... fuck that and fuck him. It’s time a woman takes himdown a few pegs.”

“Careful, sweetheart.” Eli replied, as he leaned up against my bedroomdresser, “You’re starting to sound like one of those ‘Hell hath no fury like a loverscorned’ girls who sit up in their attic, planning some poor schmuck’s demise.”

I considered that for a good second, looking down at the carpet. “Thisisn’t about that, Eli.” I finally said. “It’s about being lied to by someonewho was clearly using me as a stand-in for...what? Prolong an endedrelationship? To use me as some sort of fantasy in bed, so he can fuck ‘the onethat got away’?” I looked back over at him.

He shrugged. “I don’t know. And maybe it’s better that we don’tknow.” He walked over to me, putting his hands on my shoulders, “I don’t getit. One minute, I could swear you love the guy; the next minute you’ve got this“evil vixen” thing going that I can’t comprehend.”

I couldn’t say anything to that. I didn’t even fully understandwhy I was reacting the way I was.

Eli pulled away fromme, crossing his arms. “A piece of advice, Darce? When it comes fucking someoneover... Don’t fuck with someone who knows how to fuck you harder.”
